    Ahh well, I'll keep an eye out but for now I'll just manage with it-- it doesn't bug me all that much.

    Thanks for the response and keep up the awesome work!

The combat text that floats above my target is underneath the plates and I'd like for them to be on top. I tried to find a way to set the combat text to tooltip, but that doesn't seem to be working. I looked around through the lua files for kui but I'm not all that good with code, and only found one instance of strata in the layout.lua, where it looks to be set to 'BACKGROUND.'

    Any help on this would be tremendously appreciated, thank you!

    Re: Question!
    Frame width can't currently be changed reliably. Auras can't be resized without code changes but I've been planning to make configuration for that for.. a while. Might play around with it tomorrow.

    Thanks!

    Yep, shouldn't be difficult to add. At the moment I believe the threat glow changes colour to orange when you're losing threat, but I can add an option to customize that and expand it to the health bar too.
    Thanks for considering it !

    yep at the moment the glow changes, but with a high number of plates + high res and during intense fights, its quite hard to spot ^^

    regards

    After using Tukui/ElvUI since later WOTLK I've finally swapped to a different UI (RealUI) which comes with this addon.

    So far I love it. It's very sleek and sexy. My only issue with it seems to be the lack of a "filter" feature like ElvUI nameplates and Tidy Plates seem to have. This is a very handy feature for raiders, it allows you to add names to a list and have their plates be hidden or have their plate color be different and a larger scale (useful for banners in SoO as well as mind controls on Heroic Sha and Garrosh).

    Is there a way to obtain this functionality or is it already planned?

    Edit: so after doing a few BGs I think I know what the problem is. I'll -try- to have it fixed in the next version (relative from the current version on curse, of course).

    Small problem with your addon:
    Some times it shows the auras in PvP, some times it doesn't.

    A few people have also documented the same problems here: http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/...y-players-(PvP)

    Any chance of a fix? Thanks heaps for your addon, I love it except for this small problem!

    Weird. Tried it again and it seems to work on some classes in PvP. For instance hunters. :s

    Probably something wrong with my setup somehow.

    It looks like it might be trying to set the font to something which doesn't exist anymore, so if using the most recent version doesn't help you can also try using a different profile (with the default settings) or resetting your profile in /knp > expand "Kui Nameplates" in the addon list > click "Profiles".
